Canada and Roumania
Roumania is a kingdom of south-eastern Europe.
It has its origin in the union of the Danubian princi
palities of Wallachia and Moldava, with the addition
of a strip of Southern Bessarabia, under the Treaty
of Paris of 1856. The principalities remained sep
arate entities under the suzerainty of the Turkish
Empire until 1859, when Prince Alexandru Ion Cuza
was elected Prince of both Principalities, still under
the suzerainty of Turkey. Prince Cuza abdicated
in 1866 and was succeeded by Prince Charles of
Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen, in whose successors the
crown is now vested. In 1881 the former principal
ity was recognized by the great powers as a King
dom.
Roumania is not a ‘’Balkan” state. She took no
part in the military operations of the Balkan League
against Turkey in 1912-13. In the Great War Rou
mania fought on the side of the Allies, and after
many vicissitudes, due mainly to the sudden collapse
of the Russian armies in 1917, she merged in tri
umph at the cessation of hostilities. Her territories
were greatly increased as a result of the war, and
the pre-War area of the Kingdom of 74,000 square
miles is now estimated at 123,000; the 1915 popu
lation of about S,000,000 has been increased to
nearly 20,000,000.
The dominating religion of Roumania is that of
the Greek Orthodox Church. The Government is
that of a constitutional monarchy, the Legislative
Assembly consisting of a Senate and Chamber of
Deptnies, each elected for four years. The soil is
among the richest in Europe, growing heavy wheat,
barley, rye, maize and oats crops. Her vipes and
fruits are abundant. The climate is intensely cold
in the winter and very warn in summer. The for
ests and the mountainous regions are extensive and
the country is rich in minerals, particularly in
petroleum. All large estates have been expropria
ted and divided among the' peasants.
Service in the army is universal and compulsory.
During the Great War 900,000 men of all ranks
served in the Army, of whom over 25 per cent were
killed or returned as “missing.” At the resurgence
of Novembeft 1918, an army of 400,000 was again
in the field and this force was the deciding factor in
the Roumano-Hungarian question, driving the Bol
shevik dictator (Bela Kun) into exile from Buda
pest. There is a small navy on the Black Sea and on
the Danube.
Education is free and compulsory and there is a
Government high school of commerce, as well as
universities. Bucharest, the capital, is a picturesque
city with a population of about 700,000.
In the Canadian population there are 5,500 people
who were born in Roumania, and 30,000 more of
Roumanian origin.
Canada’s trade with Roumania is very small. Our
imports in the fiscal year 1938 amounted to 587,000,
of which $50,000 was accounted for by gasoline.
This was much less than in the previous year when
the gasoline imports were $124,000. Other imports
were nuts and seeds. Our exports to Roumania were
about $60,000, chiefly rubber tires, ploughs and other
farm implements.

Treatment of Seed Corn Before
Planting
The time for planting seed corn is now approaching
and the com grower would be wise to consider cer
tain facts now known concerning the ‘ control
of disease in this crop, states the Dominion Labora
tory of Plant Pathology, Harrow, Ontario. Years ago
almost any crop could be grown in this and other parts
of Canada without appreciable loss from disease.
Today this is no longer true. In certain districts,
where the same crop has been and is still being grown
on the same land year after year, in many cases with
short rotations or none at all, disease tends to accum
ulate. Such is the case with corn. Disease in this
crop has increased so gradually and symptoms of
certain of the diseases of com are so inconspicuous
and confusing, such as for instance the poor germ
ination and stands resulting from root rots and
seedling blights, the lack of uniformity of height of
plants, and retarded growth which are the only above-
ground symptoms of root rot of com, that many corn
growers cither do not or will not recognize the pre
sence of these diseases in their crop.
The damage caused by many fungous diseases of
corn may be materially reduced by seed treatment
with organic mercury dusts. In this category may
be mentioned seedling diseases caused by several
fungi, soil-borne organisms which either destroy the'
young plant before emergence from the ground or
invade the root tissues and weaken the plant,' also
stalk and ear rot fungi, the latter of which are very
common on seed used for planting. Under critical
conditions treatment of com seed with organic mer
cury dust may save the necessity of replanting. In
com districts to the south it has been found that
habrid seed benefits from seed treatment jiftt as
much as open-pollinated seed. In these same dis
tricts corn seed treatment with organic mercury dust
increased yields an average of 3.55 bushels per acre.J
Only a small number of ears of corn are required to
pay for this increase. Organic mercury dust (ethyl
mercury phosphate) should be used according to the
manufacturer’s directions.

cludes those living in the rather densely populated
Mackenzie Delta area. In the course of his regular
patrols, the government doctor travels about- 1,800
miles by dog team and about the same distance by
schooner each year. In addition, he uses aeroplane
transportation for emergency cases.
The hospital operated at Aklavik by the Anglican
Mission has a normal capacity of forty-eight patients,
and boasts electric lighting, X-ray, dental equip
ment, operating room 'and other modern facilities.
Likewise the Roman Catholic Mission hospital, with
accommodation for thirty to thirty-five patients, is
electrically lighted and equipped with X-ray, a modern
operating room, and a number of small wards which
allow fof the isolation of cases according to their
sex or the disability ‘from which they are suffering.
These hospitals are capable of taking care of any
type of case which arise in the area,
• The Anglican boarding school has accommodation
for one hundred pupils, while a similar institution
operated by the Roman Catholic Mission can accom
modate eighty pupils. At both of these schools the
.native child^n received education suitable to their
needs, and anj built up' in physique and bodily
health, factors which should generally, improve the
natives of the next generation to a marked degree.
Indeed, as a result of medical assistance and educa
tional facilities, the mortality, especially of infants,
has decreased and the native population is increasing.

Radio and Milk Tickets
"Dekc Aylesworth says radio can never displace
newspapers,” says Irvin S. Qibb, famous writer.
“Deke is with Roy Howard’s newspapers now and
naturally wouldn’t care to have his job shot out from
under him by a loudspeaker.
“Most of us feel that way about our jobs, unless
we happen to be working ,in some state institution,
such as a penitentiary.
“Radio never can displace newspapers any more /
than milk tickets can displace milk. The newspaper
reader chooses what he pleases from the day’s cover
age—gratifying obituary notices of people he didn’t
like; convincing statements from financial wizards ex
plaining why his investments turned sour after he’d
bought them on advice of aforesaid wizards; and
A minstrel show was given by local amateurs in the

Mr. W. J. Tune has been appointed leader of the

One hesitates to comment upon
the recommendation of the Tariff
Board to the Government on this
matter. The Tariff Board under the
able chairmanship of the late Hon.
George H. Sedgewick, K.C., made
a careful and exhaustive investiga
tion of this matter for a period ex
tending over two years. During
this time a public hearing was held
and all manufacturing concerns of
Shortening, Biscuits, Soap, etc.,
availed themselves to present all their
protests and arguments in opposition
to the application.
Surely it now seems improper for
some large manufacturing interests
to protest the recommendation that
is the impartial judgement of so able
a board, especially when tfie result
will benefit our Canadian Fanners to
the extent of several million dollars
yearly and when the same manufac
turers claim to be willing to do any
thing to improve the income of our
farmers.
Considerable publicity has been
given in regard to these protests and
many wrong impressions have been
created, therefore it is well to out
line some of the facts in regard to
this matter.
Empire Trade Treaty of 1932
With Great Britain
This Empire Trade Agreement
was made with two objectives:
1. To provide a better market
for the British Farmer.
2. To provide for Empire Pro
duction of Food__firoducts as a de
fence measure.
There is no doubt that England
was looking forward to a time when
she might require the resources of
the JEmpire for Food Products in
case of a disturbance in Europe.
Therefore, to-day no better con
tribution could be made to the Em
pire than if Canada should arrange
to provide herself, not only with her
own requirements of fats and oils
but to have a surplus for the Em
pire in case of any disturbance in
Europe. No one can deny that there
is a vy-aste of fats in Canada and we
are not utilizing all available fats
because of the present low values.
If war was to develop, the supply of
vegetable oils from England would
be immediately cut off. England is
not an exporter of Oils and Fats.
She is an importer.
The faci that England is now
importing millions of pounds of Lard
from the United States is proof that
the English Consumer does not con-
aider Vegetable Oils equal to Lard,
otherwise they would not have any
Vegetable Oils for export but would
use same in place of Imported Amei-
ican Lard.
England imports the seed and
crushes the Oil. In case of a war, vhe
cargo space for this trade would
iiot be available.
Canada does not need to worry
about England losing Canada as a
customer for oil because England
can easily use this oil in piu’e of
importing large quantities of lard
and other oils from United States
and other countries.
Some people clain^ that .this Veget
able Oil Product is as good as lard.
If so, why does England not use oil
instead of importing American larci?
Someone has stated that England
would be annoyed should we place
an excise tax against oils on account
of having given us an entry into
their market for Bacon.
The Trade Treaty for our market
cn bacon in England has nothing
whatever to do with the importation
of oils in Canada. There is no con
nection. Moreover, on the first of
January, 1939, England cancelled
the 10% preference which Canada
was granted in the 1932 Empire
Trade Treaty and our Canadian
Government consented to do this.
Therefore, inasmuch as England has
cancelled the 10% preference on
Canadian lard, in England, she should
haVe no objection to Canada placing
an excise tax on imported oils which
arc interferring with our Canadian
farmer.
The manufacturers opposing this,
say that this will be an extra burden
for the Canadian consumer. If they
are sincere in their concern about
the cost to the consumer, are they
willing to approve that all, import
duties be removed ■ on Shortening,
Biscuits, Soap, etc.’, so as to give the
consumer lower priced products.
That is the test to prove their real
concern for -the consumer.
Minimum Wage Laws in Canada
mean that the consumer pays more.
No one disagrees that it is fair and
right that a workman should have a
fair return for his work.
This also applies to the farmer—
that he should have some measure to
protect him against working for small
returns. The present prices of fat
means that the farmer’s work in
converting grain into livestock means
the farmer Is working for no wageat all.
Any measure which will assure the
farmer of a fair return for his
product compares to our minimum
wage and labor laws in Canada. Can
there be any fair minded Canadian
who begrudges increased returns to
our Canadian farmers?
Imports of American Lard
It has been stated that Canada will
import American lard and the pro
posed excise tax will only mean 1c
improved price on lard.
Here are the facts:
Chicago price to-day, on lard,
loose—
Board of Trade........................$
Duty on lard in Canada..........Sales Tax

Therefore our Canadian lard

be imported.
Take our present Canadian
Wholesale Price of...............
This only means a return to our
Canadian farmer of 2c per pound
live basis for hogs. It is estimated
that a farmer cannot convert grain
into hogs under a cost of at least 5c
per pound. Surely we are not going
to deny the farmer a fair return to
feed hogs.
Take a wholesale price of lard at
12.00. This would mean a net return
of approximately 5c for live hogs to
the farmer. It is a fair price to the
farmer and moreover, a price of 12c
wholesale for lard would be a fair
price to the consumer.
Surely everyone will be willing to
co-operate to everything that will
better the return to our Canadian
Farmer.
We must look, to'this measure as a
step toward trying to give the farmer
some protection whereby he will se
cure a fair wage return for his work
and with our present laws of mini
mum wages surely no one will say
that the farmer is not entitled to
some measure which will assure for
him, to some extent, at least, a mini
mum return for his labor.

Oxford Cheese Makers
A meeting of the Oxford Cheese
makers’ Group was held on Wednes
day evening last at the Newarl/fac-
tory, and was attended by makers
and their assistants to the number
of about 50.
The object of the group, which was
organized last year, is to promote
the interests of the maJcers and their
assistants as well as of the dairy in
dustry in general.
At the meeting samples of cheese
were scored by .different makers and
also officially by the government
grader, Garnet Bain, and interesting
comparisons made as to the relative
ratings.
Officers for the year were elected
as follows:
President—Leslie Adair, Zenda.
Vice-President — George Rich
mond, Newark.
Secretary—George Baskett, Sal
ford.
Directors—Evan MacKenzie, North
Oxford, and Wilfred Wells, Inner-
kip. '
During the meeting interesting
addresses were given by Government
Instructor William Loughin, Tham-
csford, and Charles Davis, Stratford.
The next meeting of the group will
be held at the Red Star factory on
Wednesday, June 14th. ,
A man was hired to carry hard
ware out of a ship onto a wharf... As
he crossed the plank with two small
but very heavy anvils, one under
each arm, the plank broke and ho
went down into the, water, He came
up ’and shouted for a rope, but no
one heard him. He went down and
came up the second and third time,
and the last time he appeared he
said: "If someone doesn’t throw me
a rope pretty soon, I’ll drop one of-
these anvils I”

tional period. Mrs. W. Noad and

Rev. Geo. W. Tebbs of Burling
ton, better known as "Old Man Sunshine” over Radio Station GKOC,
Hamilton, was the guest speaker at
the regular meeting of the Ingersoll
Kiwanis Club* on Thursday evening.
Kiwanian Dr. Cecil A. Osborn, presi
dent of the club acted as chairman
and Kiwanian Royden G. Start in
troduced the speaker. The club
played hosts to about fifteen mem
bers of the Kiwanis Calf Club.
Rev. Mr, Tebbs spoke in connect-
ion with moving pictures which he
brought with him, and for those who
saw the pictures on the thought of
the evening, “Down the Santa Fc,”
was a real delight. The films were
beautiful, showing portions of Can
ada and the United States.
The films were all in colors andshowed to real advantage some of
the beauties of nature. The trip
which was one the speaker had taken
recently, showed such stopping placesas Chicago, Kansas City, Alberquque,
New Mexico, Flagstaff, the Grand
Canyon, Hollywood, Cataline Island,
Santa Barbara, San Francisco, China
town, Oakland and in Canada beauti
ful Lake Louise, through the Rockies
and on to Banff.
The first film was occupied mainly
with the beauties and the scenes of
the changing moods of the Grand
Canyon, which the speaker described
as “a bit of a ditch 120 miles long
and a mile deep.” To anyone inter
ested in lovely scenery and the
beauties of nature there was some
thing vitally stirring and mighty and
profound about the Grand Canyon
and something even from the pictures
which makes one realize that nature
is truly wonderful and always new,
The speaker said that the beauty
of the Grand Canyon in the evening
was just about indescribable.
From Vancouver up the Fraser
River on to Lake Louise was a ver
itable feast of beauty in film. The

ied moods against a background of
dark, sombre sentinels of the huge
forests backed again in turn by ice
capped mountains presented a pic
ture never to be forgotten. At closerlange, the swirling waters of the
river, flanked or dotted by huge
pines and spruce were majestic in
beauty, and again the profusion of
lovely’varied-colored flowers in gardens and parks all delighted the
audience. Scenes of forest fires were
followed by scenes of twisting rail
roads or highways and again by
lovely architecture in great variety.
One of the lovely scenes of the entire
film was that of the house of the
Swiss guides, where live the profess
ional mountain guides in a splen
didly built place that might have
been dropped from the heart of their
native Switzerland, and against the
same background. In this latter film,
which unfolded itself all too quickly,
primitive nature vied with stately
examples of man’s ability to bring
in the most modern buildings in
wood, steel and stone. One of the last
scenes of beauty was that of the
state park at Banff where the. great
buffalo and elk roamed at will, pro
tected from slaughter.
Kiwanian F. Heath Stone ex
pressed the thanks of the club.to the
speaker,
“Quick now!’’ commanded the ban
dit, pointing his revolver at a woman
clerk in a large suburban office,
i “Hand over the stamps and postal

SERVICE in the implement field it no mere
appendage or fancy trimming.
Time and timeliness are the essence of success
in most farming operations. Great, loss may be
sustained by the farmer, during seeding and
harvesting, through machine breakdowns caused
by wear and accidents, if parts are not readily
available. It is then, that promptness in securing
parts has a definite money value.
Massey-Harris has always taken a pride in
the manner in which it has rendered Parts service.
Fit and quality may be taken for granted, for
replacement parts are identical with the originals.Its extensive selling organization, with local dealers
in practically every town across Canada, brings
this service within easy reach of every farmer.
No matter, too, how old the machine bearing
the name ’ Massey-Harris" may be, spare parts
can always be obtained for it.

COLLEGIATE CADETS
MADE FINE SHOWING
I.C.L Corps Inspected By
Lieut. M. P. Bogert, Cadet
Officer for M. D. No. 1,
London.
The annual inspection of the Ing
ersoll Collegiate Institute Cadet
Corps was made on Thursday after
noon, May 11th, at Memorial Park,
by Lieut. M. P. Bogert, G.S.O.
Three, M. D. No. 1, London. The
cadets paraded from the school at
1.30 o’clock, headed by several mem
bers of, the Ingersoll Pipe Band.
The salute for the march past
was taken upon arrival at the park
by Lieut. Bogert, J. C. Herbert,
Cadet Instructor of the school; Capt.
B. F. Holmes of the Royal Canadian
Corps of Signals, Principal C. L.
Bole of the Collegiate, Mayor A. H.
Edmonds and members of the Board
of Education.
After the various drills, Lieut.
Bogert, in speaking to the gathering
said: “I want to sincerely congrat
ulate the corps and Mr. Herbert for
the excellence of the day’s parade.
The ceremonial part was splendid in
deed as I am sure all the spectators
will agree. Both the cadets and
officers deserve special mention for
the parade and for the platoon and
company drill, and I am sure, too,
that the drummers contributed much
to the success of the affair. How
ever, it is after all the men in the
ranks who make or break the entire
proceedings and they were all a
credit today.
“As far as the physical training
is concerned, I thought it good and
although it makes a good showing,
the real purpose of it is good exer
cise and it is a good deal more im
portant to have good exercises than
it is to make merely a good appear
ance. It doesn’t matter so much if
someone does not keep in perfect
time in this physical work, as long as
each and" everyone does his best. In
order to derive any benefit from
these exercises, the very best of
course must be done. I have en
joyed, too, the excellent showing
in the pyramids. They were very
well done and the applause heard
was a good indication of the manner
in which they were presented.”
Mr. Herbert briefly expressed
thanks and appreciation to the in
specting officer for .his kind remarks
and to the boys for their excellent
work of the afternoon and asked the
officer to name the platoon that had
made the best showing.
In reply to this request, Lieut.
Bogert caused a genuine ripple of
amusement to go over the entire
crowd when he said: “I had the
thought in mind, but I just wasn’t
sure the strategic moment had
arrived to let the secret but. I con
sider .platoon number one to hold
the winning place.”
Principal C. L. Bole spoke briefly,
thanking the cadets for their excell
ent work. Despite the extreme cold
winds that prevailed during the day,
the attendance of spectators at the
park was very good.
To , the officers in charge much
credit is due for the fine perform
ance of the afternoon. The officers
were Company Commander, Wilfred
Baynton; Platoon Commanders, Clar
ence Woodman, James Thomson,
Bruce Borland, Russell Hall, and the
Platoon Sergeants, Robert Arkell,

A fisherman was looking for a
frog for bait, and spied a snake
which had just caught a frog. He
tried unsuccessfully by prodding and
other means to make the snake re
lease its prey; finally he pulled out
a flask and poured a little liquor in
the snake's mouth. The snake drop
ped the frog and slithered away.
Some time later the fisherman was
again needing a bait. As he started
to hunt, he felt a tug at his trous
ers and found the snake looking up
expectantly—another frog in his
mouth

OXFORD YOUTH RALLY
HELD IN INGERSOLL
Sponsored by Boys’ and Girls’
Work Board and Largely
Attended on Saturday.
The Oxford Youth Rally, sponsored
by Oxford County Boys’ and Girls’
Work Boards, was held in Trinity
United Church Sunday School hall
on Saturday afternoon and evening
with more than 160 in attendance,
and proved an outstanding success.
Miss Betty Ross, national girls’
uerk board secretary, was the guest
speaker of the day and lender for
the girls’ discussion groups while
Rev. E. Eddy of Hagersville was the
boys’ leader. Mrs. A. J. McKinney of
Woodstock, conducted a girls' group
and assisting with these groups were
Miss Dolly Broad of Springford and
Miss Beulah Sandick of Ingersoll.
Rev. S. A. Moote of Burgesvilie,
assisted with the boys’ groups. The
topic theme was “Being a Christian
Today," and the discussion groups
took such splendid subjects as
thoughts of being a Christian today,
“in the home,” “in the church,” “in
the choice of vocations,” “in the use
of leisure time”, and “in leadership.”
The last section was in charge of the
leaders for both boys and girls.
A very interesting part of the
afternoon session was the forum on
joint activities and this was conduct
ed by Miss Betty Ross and Rev. E.
Eddy. The platform was beautifully
arranged for the occasion and was
a real credit to the local girls who
had these arrangements in charge. It
represented a very realistic camp
scene with the grass, cedar trees,
camp fire and such like very charm
ingly dene. Moving pictures on camp
life were thoroughly enjoyed by all,
and this feature was a real treat as
only slides had been expected. The
leaders are most grateful to Donald
Mackenzie for the use of the lantern
for these pictures. The pictures
shown were those of camp life in
Faris.
In the final summing up of the
rally, Miss Betty Ross, the guest
speaker of the day, gave a very in
teresting talk on the thought of what
was meant by being a Christian in
the home, the community and the
world in general in this day. Rev.
Mr. Eddy, in his dosing remarks
gave a beautiful outline of the
thought, “Friendship.” The session
closed with a “friendship” circle.
The welcome address was given by
H. I. Stewart, superintendent of
Trinity Sunday. jSchool, and Rev. C.
D. Daniel, minister of the church,
introduced the leaders. The worship
service was conducted by Woodstock
members, and during the afternoon
musical numbers were contributed
by Miss Ethelwyn Daniel and Miss
Leta Beth Waring of Trinity Church,
Ingersoll. The yecreation period,
which ,was very interesting and at the
same time educational, was conduct
ed by Rev. R. B. Cumming of Sal
ford. The sing-song, which opened
the evening- session at seven o'clock,
was conducted by Rev. Mr. Daniel
and Rev. Mr, Cumming, and in con
nection with the subject, “A Day at
Camp", George S. Towle, Rev. C. K.
Love and a number of boys from
Lakeside and East Nissouri contri
buted information for the benefit of
the members. The closing vesper
service around the campfire was very
much enjoyed, and it, with the
friendship circle, was a fitting conclu
sion to the splendid rally of the day.
A delicious tea was enjoyed by all
al about six o’clock between after- '*
noon and evening sessions.
